One click from the finished job to the invoice. The customer pays online from their portal instead of sitting on a paper bill.
Every feature is switched on from the first day. No credit card, no contract.
The work, the parts, and the labor are already on the job, so the invoice builds itself from them. Nothing is typed twice.
The customer opens their portal, sees what is outstanding, and hits Pay. No check in the mail and no card numbers read out over the phone.
Some invoices settle themselves and some need a phone call. Pillar sorts them so you know which is which before you start dialing.
How it goes
3:10 pm
The technician marks the job complete, with the parts and the hours already on it.
3:12 pm
Open the job and raise the invoice. The line items are already there.
3:13 pm
It emails with a Pay button, and the same invoice appears in the customer’s portal.
8:40 pm
They pay from the couch. The invoice marks itself paid and the money is on its way to your bank.
Everything in Pillar is one record passed along, not four apps holding four copies of it.
The finished job is where the invoice gets its lines.

See howRaising an invoice, emailing it, and tracking what is still outstanding cost nothing on any account, and there is no per-invoice charge. Collecting the money is the part that carries a fee, and it is printed in full on the pricing page.
Payments taken through Pillar carry Stripe’s standard processing fees on your own Stripe account, plus 1% to Pillar. Cash and checks cost nothing.
